Penticton, from nsyilxcən snpintktn, is one of just two cities in the world situated between two lakes. Beaches and water fun are part of the summer culture here – dive in like a local and get wet. Okanagan and Skaha beaches feature nearly 15 acres of premium, sandy beach and swimming areas.
Along with all of the year-round outdoor recreational activities available, agriculture has been an important contributor to Penticton’s livelihood. There are over 80 wineries in the Penticton area, 8 craft breweries, 2 cideries and 3 distilleries all within easy walking or biking distance of the downtown core.
